What our clients say

My husband was in an car accident and was hurt. We called the lawyer when the insurance info was not to be found.

Thought out this nightmare of countless doctors appointments, tests and treatment I could just call the firm and they assisted in helping us get the best care for my husband.

After a year of treatment my husband was better and we decided to settle the case. Bobbie was incredible and always made time. When the time came to get the check Bobbie said she was sending it that day. It was almost xmas. That same day Bobbie called and said that they were sending it overnight and to have a Merry Christmas.

This firm was always professional and caring. I highly recommend them.

The dangers of speeding

Driving above the speed limit is not just breaking the law; it’s courting danger. Here’s why:

Statistics

Speeding is a contributing factor in approximately one-third of all motor vehicle fatalities. The risk isn’t just about the speeder; innocent bystanders, other motorists, and even pedestrians bear the brunt.

Reduced reaction time

At higher speeds, drivers have less time to react to unexpected events. A child chasing a ball onto the road, a car suddenly braking, situations where seconds make all the difference.

Complications

Speeding isn’t just dangerous on its own. Add factors like nighttime visibility issues, rain slicking the roads, or unfamiliar terrain, and the risk magnifies exponentially.

Common scenarios leading to speeding accidents in Las Vegas

Las Vegas, with its bustling boulevards and desert highways, has its share of speeding-induced mishaps:

City highways

Highways like I-15 or US 95 see vehicles hitting high speeds, and with dense traffic, the risks multiply.

Desert allure

The vast stretches leading out of Las Vegas might tempt drivers to push the pedal, but a sudden obstacle or curve can lead to disaster.

Entertainment hubs

Areas around The Strip or Downtown, especially during the nightlife hours, see a mix of hurried drivers, possibly impaired, making rash decisions.

Liability and proving speeding in an accident

Establishing that someone was speeding at the time of an accident can be nuanced.

Evidence gathering

Skid marks can indicate sudden braking, suggesting high speeds. Surveillance cameras from nearby establishments can capture the incident, and eyewitness accounts can corroborate the speed factor.

Traffic citations

If law enforcement issued a speeding ticket at the accident scene, it could be pivotal in establishing fault in a civil claim.

Shared liability

There are instances where both parties might have contributed to the accident, like if one car was speeding while another was making a prohibited turn. In such cases, understanding how Nevada’s comparative negligence law applies becomes crucial.

With these intricacies, it’s clear that speeding accidents demand an attorney who practices in these cases, and that’s where trusted representation from Jack Bernstein Injury Lawyers can help.

What defines a speeding accident?

A speeding accident involves one or more vehicles traveling at a speed greater than the posted speed limit or too fast for the current road conditions, leading to a collision.

If I'm accused of speeding but feel the radar was wrong, can I challenge it?

Yes. With the help of an experienced attorney, you can challenge the accuracy of radar devices or argue that the device wasn’t properly calibrated or used correctly.

How does Jack Bernstein Injury Lawyers prove someone was speeding during the accident?

Our team uses various methods, from analyzing skid marks, reviewing surveillance footage, gathering witness testimonies, and, if available, pulling data from vehicle event data recorders.

I was hit by a speeder but wasn't seriously injured. Should I still consult an attorney?

Absolutely. Some injuries manifest over time, and it’s essential to ensure your rights are protected. A consultation can help you understand potential compensation even for minor incidents.

Are speeding accidents common in Las Vegas?

Yes, due to a mix of local commuters, tourists unfamiliar with the roads, and stretches of highways, Las Vegas does witness its fair share of speeding-related accidents.

If my speedometer was malfunctioning and I didn't realize I was speeding, is that a valid defense?

Do not plan around it. Speeding in Nevada does not generally turn on whether the driver knew how fast the car was going, so a broken speedometer is better treated as a fact that may soften how your conduct is judged than as a defense. If you raise it, it needs real support: repair records, the vehicle itself, a mechanic who examined it. Note too that a traffic citation and an injury claim are separate proceedings, decided separately.

As a victim, what should I do to support my compensation claim?

Seek medical attention, document everything, and most importantly, consult with an attorney experienced in speeding accidents. They can guide you through the claim process and negotiate on your behalf.

Why should I choose Jack Bernstein Injury Lawyers for my speeding accident case?

Our extensive experience with speeding-related cases in Las Vegas, combined with our dedication to client justice, makes us a prime choice. Whether you’re a victim or have been accused, we’re here to guide and advocate for you.

Testimonial 1 of 6

“We are incredibly grateful to Jack Bernstein Injury Lawyers for helping us successfully settle our injury claim with AAA after we were rear-ended while stopped at a traffic light. A very special thank you goes to our case manager, Monique, and our fantastic attorney, Ines. Monique was kind, patient, responsive, and helped keep the case moving while we were dealing with the stress, pain, and medical treatment that followed the accident. She made us feel heard and cared for throughout the process. Ines was absolutely outstanding. She understood the details of our case, advocated strongly for us, and made sure the insurance company was held to the standards required under Nevada law. That mattered a lot to us. Insurance companies do not always make the process easy, but Ines made sure our claim was taken seriously and that AAA could not simply minimize what happened or ignore its obligations. What stood out most was that Monique and Ines treated our case like it mattered. They were professional, compassionate, and persistent, and their work helped bring the case to a successful settlement. We truly appreciate everything Jack Bernstein Injury Lawyers did for us, especially Monique and Ines. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone injured in an accident who needs a team that will fight for them and make sure the insurance company is held accountable.”

“In January I got hit on the freeway which resulted in my car being totaled and ruptured 3 of spinal discs which I was unaware of at the time. I started looking for an injury lawyer and decided on Jack Bernstein as I didn’t have to pay money up front. The first thing they did was send me to a chiropractor which they had connections with I got 3 appointments they also sent me to radiology to get an MRI about 2 months into my treatment which is when they discovered that I had ruptured 3 spinal discs in my lower back. From there they referred me to pain management where they gave me spinal injections to alleviate some of my pain. The best part about all of this is that I didn’t have to pay out of pocket for anything. My case handler Zulie was incredibly helpful throughout the whole process and helped me to fully understand what was happening with my case as it was happening. Due to help from Jack Bersteins office I was able to get the treatment I needed to make a full recovery, a brand new car, and over $65,000 without paying a dime out of pocket! I would highly recommend anyone in a similar situation to hire Jack Bernstein as their Injury Lawyer.”
